Interior, exterior, residential, and commercial painting in central Illinois. We take pride in our craft and work hard to get the job done quickly without sacrificing quality. We have a team with over 25 years of painting experience ready to tackle any project you can throw our way!

"Brett and his team were fantastic! From the initial request for quote to the actual work, Brett was communicative and available. I added a few things to my bid once the crews were here and Brett took them all in stride and did his best to accommodate me - I asked a lot of him and his crew as I requested a nearly total house transformation but I am beyond thrilled with the work and the way my house has turned out! Each and every crew member has displayed incredible attention to detail and has treated my home with the utmost respect. We hired Brett because after meeting him he felt like someone with integrity that we could trust in our home - I'm so pleased to say that I was right and even got a lot of confirmation of his character from his crew raving about him! I would spend every penny again to work with Brett!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Ensure gutters and downspouts remain clean, monitor wall integrity, and promptly address any arising imperfections or peels concept permanence rooted.

Applying a sealer after staining is often recommended, especially for outdoor wood surfaces like decks or fences. It helps protect the wood from moisture, UV rays, and other elements, extending the life of the stain and preserving the wood's appearance. It also enhances the stain's durability and resistance to wear and tear. 

However, in some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection required. Always check the specific product recommendations and consider the wood's exposure and usage when deciding whether to apply a sealer after staining.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.
